Presidents' Day

Celebrate Presidents' Day (also known as Washington's Birthday) with our colouring pages of famous presidents, printables and other activities for kids.

Presidents' Day is a national holiday in the United States and is also officially known as Washington's Birthday. It is celebrated on the third Monday of February, which next falls on 19th February 2018. Although the celebration is in honour of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, you can use it as an excuse to find out more about any of the US presidents, try your hand at some patriotic crafts, or learn about American history.

A committee to design the Great Seal of the USA was set up on July 4th 1776, the day America declared its independence. Make sure you use the right colours on our Great Seal of the US Colouring Page, it would make a perfect project cover.

There is space on this "If I were President" worksheet for the kids to write a little about what they would do and to draw a picture. We designed it for Presidents Day but it might be useful at other times too, and not just for the United States, of course.

Mount Rushmore in South Dakota features the heads of 4 US Presidents; George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln carved into the side. Colour our Mount Rushmore colouring page for President's Day or as part of a study on US History.

Print, colour and write using this story paper and colouring page of Mount Rushmore. Use the printable for history projects, learning and writing facts about the carvings, or even for imaginative story telling.
